The Imbuing Chamber

Spider scrolls are magical items that can be created with the imbuing chamber device found in White Ridge Barrow. Though these are not called scrolls by name, they appear in the "Scrolls" category of your gameplay menu. They can be equipped (held) in either hand and are thrown rather than cast. As with standard scrolls, anyone can use a spider scroll regardless of magic skill, and using one does not use any magicka; however, each spider scroll can only be used once. Spiders cannot use spells, nor power attacks.

For more information, see the main lore article.

NPC using spiders

Notes[edit]

  • Up to six spiders can be summoned at any one time, and do not count towards the summoning limit placed on Conjuration spells, meaning that they will not despawn when you use a summoning spell.
  • The spiders do not have a time limit, and thus will remain summoned until they are destroyed. They will also fast travel with you. They will follow you from Solstheim to Skyrim. They will follow you into a shop or house (which can get pretty crowded). They don't seem to follow when you visit Apocrypha, but will be waiting for you when you return.
  • The spiders will turn hostile to you immediately if they are hit by any offensive ability of yours that does any damage. This is only relevant to the Cloaked spiders however, as both the Jumping and Exploding variants will explode immediately upon damage. The ability to damage them is not affected by the Companion's Insight effect.
  • The Exploding spider types can be propelled by the Unrelenting Force shout or an arrow for a short time before they will explode.
  • There is a single respawning albino spider egg from which you can obtain albino spider pods for creating scrolls, located just south of Bloodskal Barrow, near a shrine of Kynareth.
  • If a flawless gem is used in any of the elemental recipes, six scrolls will be produced by the recipe instead of three.
